My name is Shawn Favilla and what can I say that hasn't already been said by other photographers... and probably better.

I love photography, plain and simple. I love the anticipation of sifting through hundreds of photos and finding that one photo in the bunch that makes the whole shoot worthwhile or capturing that one, unique moment in a person's life.

Photography is about capturing and immortalizing those moments in time that can never be captured again, at least not with the same meaning. It's even better when it's a rare moment that only the camera caught. So whether it's shooting sports, nature, or portraits, I believe the same principle applies, it's the method that differs.
